The Seminar was on Cape Cod which provided many quite wonderful photo opportunities both natural and un-natural(to stay out of trouble I will define un-natural at not existing in nature). I will second the opinion that having one's slides thrown up on a screen and dissected was a very worth while experience. So now to the PAW: I stayed on Cape Cod most of Sunday to return to the places that had been promising but I hadn't executed well. The first image is of a sunbather down in Provincetown. She brought much amusement to the end of season crowd. You will notice that the weather was quite chilly. http://www.photo.net/photodb/photo?photo_id=1101050 My second image is from the pier. As some know, I have had difficulty with my .72 M6 focusing the 75 Summilux. During the Seminar I acquired one of the 1.25X finders which has cured all that difficulty. This shot was taken almost at F1.4 at the closest focusing distance and the image is cropped almost 50% removing the left half of the photograph that didn't add to the picture. http://www.photo.net/photodb/photo?photo_id=1101053 As always, comments, criticisms, and Leica lenses cheerfully accepted.
